I wouldn’t waste any money on DDR4 at this point. The only excuse I could think of is if you have a motherboard that requires DDR4 and your current RAM is not working. Otherwise, get a motherboard that supports DDR5 and you’re good.

If that’s what they meant then it’s bad writing.

“speeding up some tasks yet making others slower due to lower quality outputs”

So use it for the tasks that were made more efficient, and stop using it for the ones that slowed down or were low quality.

Looks stupid, I’d much prefer a more powerful tablet that’s cheaper. Gimmick.

If they’re that dumb I wouldn’t want to work for them anyway.

Sure I’ll agree it’s both.

That’s not true. It’s developers incapable of using AI responsibly. If my manager told me to use AI, I would be sure to inform them of the limitations professionally.

Seriously, this is not a problem with AI, it’s a problem with the developers who don’t know what they’re doing. Whenever building something like this, ALWAYS assume the user will try to break it. Simple.

Never use AI for friendship, it’s like admitting you only want yes-men in your life. I don’t want to be around anyone who uses AI for emotional support.

You can make ad blockers illegal, but you can’t actually enforce it unless you have a dystopian totalitarian government with a secret police to track down anyone using one. Does Germany have that?

Twenty years is a very long time, also “good” is relative. I give it about 2-3 years until we can run a model as powerful as Opus 4.1 on a laptop.

Things have improved, people’s standards are just significantly higher. Remember when we didn’t even have clean drinking water? Nope, wasn’t alive back then.

The bubble is irrelevant, that’s just capitalism being inefficient. When the dot com bubble popped it’s not like the internet died. We got things like Netflix and Amazon only after the bubble popped.

I don’t hate AI, and I think broadly hating AI is pretty dumb. It’s a tool that can be used for beneficial things when used responsibly. It can also be used stupidly and for bad things. It’s the person using it who is the decider.

That’s one example, but what about other models? What you just did is called cherry picking, or selective evidence.

I doubt it, LLMs have already become significantly more efficient and powerful in just the last couple months.

In a year or two we will be able to run something like Gemini 2.5 Pro on a gaming PC which right now requires a server farm.

Linux has only become much more user friendly in about the past 5 years. Installing Linux Mint in my experience was actually easier than Windows. It comes down to education and the misconception that using Linux is somehow more difficult than Windows or iOS. The hard truth is if someone is using Windows or iOS they are probably just too lazy to switch as long as it does what they need they don’t care if they’re being burdened with bloatware or spied on.

While billionaires keep using their private jets.

No it’s not, maybe for some mainstream websites. Saying the “whole internet” is clickbait hyperbole.
